Great input - thank you so much. I've been reading up on the Sumitumos and they seem like a great choice. I will definitely be in touch if I need some more friendly knowledge. :)

Explanation?

Perfect. The dimensions with these totally throw me off, I'm not used to the overall diameter of 22.5's at all. Even happier to hear they're not a pain to balance and you received even tread wear. Stock gears?

Honestly, it's an extra grand to downsize to a 22", hence why I'm looking at the 22.5". It's not that I can't spend the extra, it's that I see it being pointless and dumb to pay $1000 for downsizing a half inch. The tires will solely be used for summer anyhow, my winter set-up goes back on as...

What size are you currently running that you had to trim a little? Largest I can find online size wise for those is a 275/70R22.5 - good looking tires, and not too pricey.

Fellow dually'ers, I'm in the midst of ordering some AF Classic's (22.5"x8.25"), but this is my first time dealing with a 22.5" rim, and it's making my tire selection awfully difficult. I'd like to get an idea of tires/cost prior to dropping $3000+ solely on wheels. What are you guys running...

...That doesn't require a $11,500 engine, buy one used IF there's a hole in the actual block to begin with. And you don't know if it threw a rod, could be a gasket, you're just guessing, as we all are.

You can grab motors used for waaaaay cheaper. WAY cheaper. They're not easy to come by, but they exist. And why would you replace when you can rebuild? If it's just a piston, buy a rebuild kit, they're included I believe.

It won't be a 10k bill unless you're doing one mean build. Pull that engine out and talk to Ford - can't you get a rebuild kit for the 6.4 through them? Screw the car and invest in some turbos, ceramic coat the pistons, proper up pipes, and do the heads, rails, valves and studs ... okay, maybe...

All right, I've read plenty of threads regarding this issue but it seems there's no agreed upon outcome - so I thought I'd inquire: I've a 2008 F450, 147km on it, and recently it's been blowing a butt ton of blue smoke, solely on acceleration, and only for a mile or two at most. It's a...

Indeed she is. Good memory. ;)

Definitely not. Pretty sure she tried to build hers like mine though.

Us Dmax ladies gotta stick together. Haha ;)

Yes, sir. The F450 looks better beside the F650 though. Buhbye Dmax. ;)

Bahahaha, you would dmax it up in here. ;) xo
